A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Ruth! I’m 18 and from Plainfield, looking for consistent babysitting jobs to help me to support my college tuition. I’ll be attending UIC this fall for my BFA in Fine Arts, so I’m available in both the city and suburbs (preferably near campus). I’ve babysat for family and friends, and cared for my younger sister for 4+ years, most jobs being paid work. I’m most comfortable with kids ages 3+, and can help with pets, chores, and light housekeeping if pay reflects those extra tasks. I have a valid license and my own car for suburb transportation only. I'm not CPR certified yet, but am happy to get trained if needed. While babysitting, I love allowing kids to express their creativity and curiosity through arts and crafts. I understand families have specific needs, and as a college commuter, I ask for understanding regarding my schedule and limitations. With this in mind, my main goal is to provide reliable, caring, and communicative support to every child and family I work with.

More About Me

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Any arts/crafts, music, outside sports and activities, reading, playing w toys, cooking, etc…

The most important part about being a nanny...

My primary goal is make the families I’m sitting/nannying for feel as comfortable and cared for as possible. I’m here to support parents in feeling safe enough to trust me as their sitter/nanny and to provide a good experience for their children in their home. My job is to also support the kids in feeling safe and comfortable around me so I can adequately care
for their needs. I want to create an environment where kids can have the freedom to have fun while still being able to follow rules or tasks in a way that doesn’t bore them. I also don’t want kids to be afraid to ask for things or to simply talk, because I can also offer that type of emotional support. I hope I can be a good fit for families who need help with their kids in any kind of way; because that’s what I’m here for!

My experience with special needs children...

Most of my experience actually comes from taking care of my my mother when she was sick and not mobile and in a lot of pain, however I can try and accommodate any needs that are manageable for a sitter.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Any time I had to babysit my sister was an…interesting, but fun, time.
